hey i took my driving test today but i have a question
when you make a left turn do you have to look back?
cause i didn't know you were supposed to
and i failed because of that TT

[Misao]

^i dont think so.. well i guess for more safety reasons. i only look back when i turn right or changing lanes. o___o

I FINALLY PASSED MY DRIVING TEST after 8 tries lol

yea i always check my blind spots when i make right turnes
but the person said it was very dangerous to not check when making a left turn
which i thought was really weird
i hate my dmv place --

I passed my permit test on my first try at the age of 15.
I passed my driving test on my first try at the age of 16.
I passed my m1 permit test on my first try at the age of 19.
I passed my m1 test on my first try at the age of 20.

If I can pass my tests in school, I would have been on a roll.

if you're nervous you will have a higher chance of failing....
suck up to the person marking you... haha thats what i did

Follow the speed limit NO MATTER WHAT. Exaggerate a lot with head turns. Use turn signals when turning. Look both left or right. And when you're making a turn, wait for all right of way cars to go first. Even if you see an incoming car 100 feet away, still wait. My sister failed because she turned before letting all the cars go. Even when they were pretty much far away and you have enough time to turn, just wait.

i'm 16 and happily passed my CA DMV driver test on my first try and got my license! this was like a month ago or so too. (: Make sure your driving the posted speed limit, BE CAREFUL DON'T GO OVER OR UNDDDER <- ( people say driving slower is good but it's NOT )

DON'T STRIKE OJECTS

MAKES SURE YOU KNOW THE STUFF IN YOUR CARS, LIKE TURNINGLITES AND STUFF (:

There is more.. but just.. google it : D ahah

[MistahKK]

Relax. Don't think about things like "when is this going to be over?" or "I hope it ends soon". Just take the test and drive. Drive as if you'll be driving for at least 30 minutes.

Hello,

Hi im 19 and I will be taking my first behind the wheel test next week in the California, Newhall DMV..does anyone have any tips and info I can have? i really wanna pass first try..and can you guys tell me the experiences you had? and if you passed first try or not? and has anyone been to the newhall dmv? thanks alot

How is your driving practice is going......

#1 single most important tip: Relax

If you've had practice in driving before through instruction and are comfortable with driving, if you relax, you should have no problem passing the test.

Very well said. The very first thing in any type of exam is just feel relax and comfortable. Because if you are in tension or nervous then you can not pass any exam.


Regards,
Olivia

I am SOOOO bookmarking this for my driving test in Jan. >.< I'm actually fairly good at driving, but I am so not good at driving tests >.<

[terrorist]

my teacher said i'll pass with flying colors. he said i'm a professional driver, and i don't have to worry..

i failed my driving test cuz i was nervous. so make sure ur confident!

Best tip is to pass sample DMV tests online before visiting DMV office.
Some free online tests can be found on
Practice permit tests

i scheduled a time that was really busy with cars. for me this was great since i didn't have to really pay attention to my speed because the traffic caused a major slow down. i took it in auburn, i don't know if you know where that is in california but it was so hilly and foggy. anyway the most important thing to do is for you is to make sure that your examiner knows you are looking left and right (turn your head, don't just look left and right with your eyes) and don't forget to signal when pulling next to curb and when pulling out of the curb into regular traffic.
